The added bells and whistles will roll out later this year as part of "Fall Creators Update" that will be provided for free to 500 million personal computers, smartphones and tablets powered by Windows 10.

Microsoft is now rolling out Windows 10 Build 16193 to Windows Insiders in the Fast Ring with a lot new features.

During today's keynote at Microsoft's Build developers conference, Terry Myerson and other members of the Windows and Devices Group made several announcements during their 90 minute keynote. It's a spiritual successor to the Metro interface from Windows 8 that aims to make the operating system more responsive on the growing variety of devices employed by users. It will enable applications to capture what a user is doing before they log out and let them pick up right from where they left off on another device.

Switching between apps in Windows 10 has always been easy thanks to Task View, but now there will be a timeline aspect to it as well - so you can effectively get back to where you were, even if it was on another Windows 10 PC. "Imagine logging off your PC and having the doc you were editing pop up on your phone", Myerson asked, adding that Cortana will ask users if they want to pick up where they left off in the app, doc or website. As with other Windows 10 updates, this will be free for existing Windows 10 users.

First, Microsoft says, it'll include a Windows Story Remix, a new app that takes your photos and videos and automatically stitches them into stories, complete with a soundtrack and transitions.

Democrats see a winning issue in opposing GOP health billRand Paul of Kentucky, argue there's no choice. "They'll find out that their Congress person voted to take away their healthcare". Senior citizens, for whom the AHCA already plans to increase premiums, are more likely to belong to this category of patients.

Microsoft will employ the activity data collected along the way to support Timeline, a feature for bringing up old application sessions.

Windows Story Remix uses AI and deep learning to organize and transform photos and videos into stories. With it, all users need is Visual Studio and their iPhone to get started building native apps for iOS in minutes. Microsoft executives described it as a more gradual journey over time.

In addition, your OneDrive files won't just be visible on your desktop, they'll also be shown in the file picker when you're using a Windows store application. "For developers, Fluent Design is built to help you create more expressive and engaging apps that work across a wide range of device and input diversity". That is far less than the $3,000 to $5,000 Microsoft has been charging for another mixed reality headset called HoloLens. And though "Fall Creators Update" might feel like Microsoft is phoning it in a little by copping most of its last update's name, it's certainly descriptive.

Microsoft also plans to introduce a new mixed reality headset and motion controller in time for the holiday season.

The studio released the posters on their official Twitter page, which features Harrison Ford and Ryan Gosling . Story by Hampton Fancher, based on characters from the novel Do Androids Dream of Electric Sheep? by Philip K.

Asif warned that Pakistan would respond "fittingly" to Afghanistan if any further violations were committed along the border. It said that in the first two months of 2017, 807 personnel of Afghan security forces had been killed and 1,328 injured.

Mehbooba said that her government is trying to maintain peace in the valley but there are some anti elements who hinder the path. But on Saturday, the 57-year-old CM backed Modi and said whatever he decided (on Kashmir), the entire country would support him.

He said that since he and Jones have both played in the AL East for years, it is likely that they have had different experiences. Starting pitcher Chase Anderson continued his solid campaign, allowing two earned runs and striking out four in 4 2/3 innings.

Burakovsky forced a turnover by Penguins defenseman Ron Hainsey, moved to the right post and flipped the puck in off of Fleury. A failed one-timer caused Marc-Andre Fleury to be out of position, and Kuznetsov had an open net from a sharp angle.

Two shots and roughly three minutes later, Jake Guentzel lifted the Penguins to a two-goal lead going into the third period. Colorado entered with the best odds to win, 18 percent, but fell three spots and will select fourth.

It is the second group release; Nigeria announced in October that 21 girls had been freed after negotiations with the extremists. Its insurgency has killed more than 20,000 people and driven 2.6 million from their homes, with millions facing starvation.

India has been at loggerheads with the ICC in recent weeks over the revenue and governance models. The BCCI said it was keeping its legal options open, indicating the row was far from over.
